Green Standards Challenge: Five (5) proposed steps for green standards meetings:

Step 1: Any member can participate remotely and submit / present contributions using audio. Contributions sent by E-mail or Ftp and displayed by secretary. Audio good enough for remote participant to hear all comments / questions.

Step 2: Contributions can be presented using GoToMeeting (or equivalent) - visible to all participants and progressing / editing of document displayed. Audio good enough so that any remote participant is not disadvantaged. Speakers / questioners identified by name.

Step 3: Documents and remote speaker both visible to all participants. All questioners appear on video.

Step 4: Performance sufficient to do away with some face-to-face meetings. Build on current Webinars to include video as key element to see speaker and / or chairman as well as document.

Step 5: Teleconference / multimedia telepresence using professional equipment.

Performance Targets and timescales for each phase to be defined.

DTR/TISPAN-05028-NGN-R3: “Telecommunications and Internet converged Services and Protocols for Advanced Networking (TISPAN); Feasibility study of Energy Efficiency in the Customer Premises Networks“

Proposed work on the different methods of energy control and energy management, i.e., on protocols that control and/or monitor the Energy Efficiency / power modes of devices in the Customer Premises Network. This includes discussion of white-goods, as well as STB, CNG, IPTV, media-storage devices, WLAN Access Points, etc. It is expected that the protocols will allow remote access by users and/or the NGN service provider. Existing work from other fora will be considered, e.g. from HGI, ETSI EE, ETSI ATTM, and from EC Code of Conduct, etc.



Specialist Task Force (STF) 354: ”Guidelines and Tutorials for Improving the User Experience of Real-time Communication Services”

TR 102 643 (DTR/HF-00111); “Human Factors (HF); User experience requirements for real-time communication services”

The work item shall evaluate existing user-centered guidelines and their dissemination for the development of real-time communication services. This includes EG 202 534 and the web-based system developed by STF 284 (DEG/HF-00062). The real-time services shall include person-to-person communication (e.g., multimedia conferencing, text communication) and person-machine interaction (e.g. machine avatars, mobile TV). Future requirements shall be derived from industry consultation and shall identify the priorities for new guideline data beyond that currently available. Recommendations shall be made that take into account the evolution of technologies, the development of user and market requirements and updates of the EC ICT Standardization Work Programme.

EG 202 670 (DEG/HF-00112); “Human Factors (HF); Quality of Experience Guidelines for real-time communication services expressed in Quality of Service terms“

The main requirements for the work are documented in TR 102 535. The work item shall address results from DTR/HF-00061 and DEG/HF-00062 that could not be included in EG 202 534 because they were beyond its scope. In particular, case studies with target audiences identified requests for at least 75 candidate guidelines that could not be included in EG 202 534 because either there was no base data available or they concerned real-time person-to-machine communication rather than person-to-person communication. Therefore work shall be performed to collect base data (e.g. literature review and user tests) and include real-time person-to-machine communication services (e.g. media quality for mobile TV streaming, machine avatars). The work includes special user groups. For example, it is expected to include guidelines from ongoing work on the optimization of real-time text communication for people who are hearing impaired. In summary the work shall include: continuing contact with intended guideline users within industry for their requirements and feedback; identifying the set of guidelines that should be developed; monitoring published research findings for inclusion as guidelines; performing end-user studies to create guidelines; revising EG 202 534 as a new Guide. The guidelines shall be used to extend the web-based system initiated by DEG/HF-0062 and designed to be appropriate for key industry representatives (e.g. strategic planners, development engineers, customer support contacts, conference meeting facilitators).
